Re: CORN GAS RESULTS (pics!)

glanced at the pics looks like more of a lean detonation issue. were you running just e85 straight or gas with 10%? the 10% alone will not have any ill effects unless the engine is lean out of the box or your timing is way off. if you were burning straight e85 then yeah you need to adjust for that at least 10% richer for proper combustion. I ran e 85 for a while but it wasent worth it cost wise and there were only 2 gas stations in drivable distance that sold it at the time.
